Podcast+or+Vodcast

=**What is a Podcast/Vodcast?**= ====These are types of files that can be uploaded to a computer, media player, or any other device that can hold electronic files. A podcast usually has themes, and a vodcast has elements of podcasting that can also be downloaded to an MP3 player.====

=**Best Professional Educator Practices:**=

====This method is excellent for any teacher under any curriculum. Instructors can take all sorts of routes with podcasts/vodcasts. For example, teachers can record instructions for a certain lesson from their own home and set up a link for their students to access, just like our 360 professor did :)====

=**Annotated Weblinks:**=

====Kids can create an account and set up podcasts for other peers to listen to. The whole idea of this site is to make it kid friendly by having the kids themselves be the publishers. An excellent source for student projects.====
